Test

Song Four, "Met with the End"

Spoon-inspired, super short, a little over a minute long, not unlike some of their earlier work. Scroll down to the "song one" post to check it out! This also fills the purevolume max of four songs than can be accessed on the player, so something may change with this format I'm using. For some reason I want all the songs to be available and listenable on this blog, rather than just re-directing somewhere else. We'll see.

Song Three, "Friend Filter"

Short one today, inspired by the lovely tune "I'm in Love with a Girl" by Big Star. Scroll down to the "Song One" post to listen.

Song Two, "Hélène Cixous"

Hélène Cixous is a feminist theorist that has changed my life forever. Scroll down to the "song one" post to listen to it.

Song One, "Pieces of the Puzzle"

It will be challenging to post only one at a time with this purevolume.com player because it groups four songs together in the playlist. So I guess I'll just say the name of the new song each day, and then tell you to come down here to listen to it. Or maybe I'll just keep embedding the player over and over again until I hit the forth. Then I will soundcloud it.

Day one's song is called "Pieces of the Puzzle".

New Plan for the Blog

This blog was once just a compost heap of ideas for a playwriting class I was taking Winter 2010. I'm not a very consistent, believing, or creative writer in any genre, let alone plays, but I have a new goal: to write one song every day for a month, compiled here, without judgement, ire, or apology (although I may post critical notes on the songs sometime). Because my life is nuts, the songs will be simple and short, and I won't have the time to hate it before uploading it for public enjoyment/ridicule. It's an experiment in constriction. Maybe my creativity will take flight when I jump off a mountain and Bradburyishly build my wings on the way down. Starting today.

Please leave a comment on song-posts that you have a strong reaction to or some constructive criticism for. I want whatever feedback exists.
